The always welcome Baby Blue Eyes and the always
not welcome Chickweed, even though the tiny white flowers are pretty. It would be welcome if it didn't try to choke out everything else.
Stinging Lupin: It also has pretty flowers, but those tiny hairs on the leaves cause a reaction worse than stinging nettle.
Tulips...sadly, not mine. Some critter thought they were quite tasty!
My favorite, lilacs! The temperatures have been in the upper 60's for the past few days, and the air is saturated with the scent of lilacs. I've had all the doors and windows open so my cottage would fill up with their wonderful fragrance. I wish I could bottle up the fragrance and send each of you a bottle. It's supposed to be much cooler tomorrow, but I still plan on leaving the all doors and windows open, only I'll have fires going in all the fireplaces to keep the cats warm. The white and the pink lilacs haven't opened yet, but it shouldn't be too long before they do, hooray!
